Default Flowtech Headers

Do they really flow or are they crap? I'm talking about the longtubes by the way. Thanks!

i would definetly spend the extra 25$ and get pacesetters... ive heard nothing bad about those headers really.... true niether is going to be quite up to hookers quality, but the pacesetters are really nice from what ive read

the flowtechs however should flow about the same, but ive heard about 1 in every 2 pair doesn't seem to fit worth a ****.

Just about any long tube will flow about the same as the other, just like lids. I've heard some bad reviews about the flowtechs, and their craftsmanship is nothing to brag about.

I have pacesetters on my car and have zero problems with them. Good clearance, no probs with welds, etc...

There are some premium headers out there and they are very, very nice with out a doubt but are 700 bucks and up; pacesetters do the same job for much cheaper. Run away from SLP and flowtech headers in my opinion.

Hooker LT's are no piece of art either. If you are going with a mild steel header, get the Pacestter's.
